The Magic of a Lady with cigarette through the Decades




Well, I am not a ‘’big fan’’ of smoking however, I do enjoy a cigarette myself time to time. There is something special about seeing a Lady that knows how to hold a cigarette and that did not change with a time. This is what inspired me to do this post and here we go...

''Powder Rooms'' around Town



Powder Rooms - the place where the Ladies spend the most of their night out. That gave me an inspiration for this post. It is amazing how different Styles and Decoration are top priority in a restrooms because this space is a place where owners can show off their taste to guests and most of them would say:
"The powder room is the wow room"...different pubs, bars, restaurants, hotels..and here we go...

This is where it all started... love for the tradition, people, life, colors... 

The house where I grow up - ...all the rest was built up on a good base...

 

The place where the cactus and the rose grow together...


 A good music was always there...

 

Little things that count... 


The dancing was ''normal'' as walking...

 

The place where Chinese lamp (100.00 dinars) and Venetian doll (100.00 euros) fit together perfectly :) ...


 A clown was a cutest doll to play with but not scary Halloween mask.. :)

 


The place were the love for ''vinatge'' was born...

 


The place open for any language, culture, religion, faith. ..
